Kitchen Renovation:

-Remove old kitchen cabinets
-Prepare walls for new kitchen
-Installed a new ceiling over the previous popcorn finish to achieve a flat look
-Installed new cabinets, doors, countertops, sink and fascia/bulkhead
- New paint on the walls, ceiling and trim.

Our clients wanted to update their kitchen in order to remedy some issues they noticed while flattening the ceiling at the same time. We added cabinet and counter space to the left of the stove and we gave them a big drawer bank for pots and pans storage. Finally we added extra cabinet space above the microwave and allowed clearance for the dishwasher to sit under the countertop. Some minor functionality changes can make a big difference.
